My husband is in this tranche. He is desperate for redundancy. He has applied for it. Am terrified he is not going to get it because he is going to be a grumpy Gonz if he doesn't.

Anyone else up for it?

    If his job is still in existence, then it wont become redundant.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    Not quite that simple when he is in the bracket for redundancy and he is stopping people from promoting and only has 2 years to go.

    No chance of promotion himself. Not the same as civvy strasse is it.

    Chances of him getting redundancy with 2 to go, minimal I'm afraid

    No, unfortunately he didn't get it. So I have to put up with a grumpy Mr Gonz for a couple of years. Stangely colleagues with less time got it. Maybe they are less useful, who knows how the Glasgow works these days.
